Dr. Sharon Hull: Founder of Meta Solutions and author of Professional Careers by Design , Dr. Hull brings 35 years of experience as a physician and coach to help over 450 clients pivot careers. Beating Self-Doubt: She shares her "hip pocket questions," starting with "What matters most to you?" to guide listeners through career uncertainty. Five-Step Framework: Identify what matters to you, your stakeholders, and your organization, then align and act—practical steps for any transition. Life Stage Insights: Early careers focus on skills, mid-careers on balance, and later ones on caretaking; most prioritize personal (70%) over professional goals. Staying Adaptable: With long-term jobs rare, she advises building a priority “touchstone” to navigate today’s flexible career landscape. When to Shift: Use the "Stay-Go Grid" (Stay/Go vs. Survive/Thrive) and "Four Es" (Education, Experience, Exposure, Enthusiasm) to spot the right time to move. Cover Letter Tips: Keep it short, narrative-driven, and tied to the company’s needs—e.g., link a caregiving gap to relevant skills. Real Stories: A leader tweaked her life for her kids, and a retiree chased a Hollywood dream—proof her tools work. Core Message: Life is one—design it intentionally.

Handwritten Thank You Letters Move You Forward: The Secret Weapon Nobody Uses 6:02

23天之前6:02

6:02

Handwritten thank you letters set you apart —but only send them for roles you actually want . Don’t bother writing one if you had a weird vibe, didn’t connect, or just aren’t excited. If the company, manager, role, or pay feels right— go the extra mile . Keep it short, safe, and strategic. This isn’t a place for emotion or storytelling. The goal? To show appreciation, reinforce interest, and subtly remind them you’re the solution to their needs. Handwritten Thank You Letter Template: Dear [Interviewer's First Name], Thank you for your time and insight into the [Job Title] role. After getting to know you, the team, and the mission here at [Company Name] , I am convinced that my experience in [Your Area of Expertise] will help advance your mission. Sincerely, [Your Name] Handwrite it (not an email). Don’t go longer than the template. Use your handwriting, even if it’s not perfect—authenticity matters. Drop it in the mail within 24–48 hours after the interview.

Power of Positivity: 4 Steps to Transform Your Career 12:15

26天之前12:15

12:15

Introduction to Positivity: This year’s focus is on how positivity can transform your personal growth, job search, interviews, and overall career trajectory. Defining Positivity: It’s not just happiness—it’s choosing hope, proactivity, and a solution-focused mindset despite challenges. Benefits in Career Growth: Positivity boosts resilience in a fast-changing work world. It enhances networking, opportunity recognition, and professional development. Job Search Mindset: Reframe rejection as a step closer to the right fit, not a failure. Treat every interview as a chance to refine skills and build confidence. Celebrate small wins (e.g., second-round interviews, resume praise) to stay motivated. Set realistic goals: break the job search into manageable milestones (e.g., 5 applications/day, 1 meaningful conversation/week). Positivity in Interviews: Show confidence (not arrogance) with a can-do attitude and positive language (e.g., “I haven’t done that yet, but here’s how I’d approach it”). Genuine enthusiasm—let employers see your excitement for the role through tone, eye contact, and energy. On the Job: Maintain positivity by seeking solutions, encouraging colleagues, and investing in your growth (e.g., courses, reading, conferences). Small acts of support (e.g., offering help, kind words) build a collaborative environment. Tips to Foster Positivity: Gratitude Journaling: Reflect daily on professional things you’re thankful for. Mindful Habits: Prioritize sleep, exercise, and short breaks to recharge. Positive Network: Surround yourself with uplifting, like-minded professionals. Visualize Success: Picture thriving in interviews or roles to boost focus and confidence. Closing Thoughts: Positivity isn’t a guarantee, but it significantly increases resilience, interview success, and career growth—let’s embrace it together!

Career pivots are more common than ever – Nearly 49% of professionals make a major career change, and employers are becoming more open to hiring pivoters.

Highlight how your fresh perspective brings value to the company. Show that you’re eager to learn and master their way of doing things. For hiring managers – Companies that embrace career pivoters see innovation, adaptability, and a competitive edge.
